Estancia Los Potreros

This clever piece of architecture has been built by the monk parakeet. These noisy, birghtly coloured birds are a relatively new arrival to the Sierras, and live in these slightly precarious communal nests.

This odd little fellow is actually a baby vulture. He fell from his nest and was found by one of our dogs, and is now being hand-reared by our housekeeper. The latest, slightly unusual, addition to the family!!
